But if the process is a part of another process running in the background with no window to drop the "X" on you need to know the PID and kill off just the "ugly" process. vern "Joseph S. Gardner" wrote: > > Younes Zouhair wrote: > > > vern wrote: > > > > > If you are using KDE you can use the "

[newbie] how to kill a runaway app?

2000-05-18 Thread Wade
Hi List, I have found an occasion or two to use the 'Ctrl, Alt, Backspace' command a couple of times which has been a saving grace, but I have only had a need to kill a runaway (unresponsive) app, rather than my xserver. My question, is there a way to kill an app and not restart my xserver? Also
